        We go through more extensive fingerprint checks. @uber @lyft have it easier than taxis.

        Being denied for a suspended license years ago; that's over kill. If the driver has a current and valid drivers license they should work!

        Mandated background checks under the new guidelines are more intrusive than a military security clearance according to some who've had both.

        Not true. @uber @lyft background checks are not extensive enough for their drivers to enter military bases. Cabbies checks are.

        Many people struggle for a jobs because of federal convictions. Uber and Lyft may be a valid opportunity for them being taken away now.
